This is the story of martyred Iraqi moujahid Hussnayn al-Sa’adi of Harakat Hizbullah al-Nujaba, may he rest in power and in dignity and be appreciated by the Angels (A.S.) until the end of time. He was martyred in Syria on February 2nd, 2015 and it is a story that has never been told before up until now. The reason for writing it at this very moment in time is rather simplistic: We are in the midst of the first 10 days of the Muharram, that painful time when we relive the suffering of Imam Hussein (A.S.) and the Karbala 72, as well as reflect on how the sacrifices made on Youm al-Ashoura 680 A.D. (61 A.H.) affect us all today when thrown against the backdrop of the current geopolitical landscape. So what better time to recount the life of a Shahid as Husseini as Hussnayn al-Saadi than this one?! Born in Kufa and raised in Karbala, Hussnayn would begin his life as a moujahid at the tender age of 18 when the American-Zionist aggression was launched against Iraq. He joined the ranks of the Mahdi Army before heading towards Asa’ib Ahlul Haq and was known for his fiery demeanor, love of Palestine and passion for the Holy Qur’an, attributes which he put to good use on the battlefield, hyping up his fellow fighters in the confrontation against the invaders. Hussnayn would partake in liberating Basra from US-British occupation as well as several key battles in and around Baghdad.

The Yemeni people make extraordinary look ordinary and otherworldly look worldly. They really are that astonishing and truly that brave. To see them out on the blocks of the Yemeni capital in their hundreds of thousands to slam Al-Saud’s massacre of at least 458 innocents at a funeral on those very same Sanaa streets just 24 hours earlier, is not only a reminder of how fantastically defiant they are, nor merely how immeasurably resilient, but how intrinsically Husseini first and foremost. The US-‘Israeli’ Empire is the Yazid (L.A.) of our time and every Yazid needs his Shimr (L.A.), i.e. the mindless, bloodthirsty, dirt-ridden killer who carries out his orders against the Moustazafeen. Al-Saud is certainly the Shimr of this age, inflicting death and destruction wherever Washington and Tel Aviv send it to hurt those descendants of Imam Hussein (A.S.) who carry on his righteous Muhammadi legacy to preserve their homeland, their culture and their religion. And make no mistake, this is not Jonathan Azaziah’s opinion but the view of the Yemeni people themselves indeed. Continue reading Imam Hussein’s (A.S.) Spirit Lives In Yemen: Hundreds Of Thousands Slam Saudi Funeral Massacre→

Long live the resistant Lebanese Shi’a of Dahiyeh (Beirut’s Southern Suburbs)! In the middle of an Ashoura procession, news about Saudi Arabia’s massacre of 700+ Yemeni civilians at a Sanaa funeral came in over the wires and immediately thereafter, the ever-defiant people starting belting out “Koulina al-Yemen!”, which literally translates to “WE ARE ALL YEMEN!” Talk about being overwhelmed with the spirit of Imam Hussein (A.S.) and his late descendant Sayyed Hussein al-Houthi (R.A.)! There has been support for the Yemeni struggle against the Saudi regime from the Islamic Republic of Iran and the Iraqi Popular Mobilization, specifically from Harakat al-Nujaba chief Sheikh Akram al-Kaabi and Imam Ali (A.S.) Brigade Commander Abou Azrael. There has been backing from the Syrian Arab Republic, Sheikh Ibrahim Yaqoub al-Zakzaky of Nigeria and Palestine’s Islamic Jihad as well as the PFLP. But no people in the world have defended Yemen and raised their voices with eardrum-busting loudness for Ansarullah and the Yemeni people quite like the Lebanese and their heroic Mouqawamah. None.

This smile? This smile is worth more than every element and currency on Earth amalgamated. In fact, this smile is of such a transcendent value that when it is flashed, all of the gold, silver, platinum and gemstones in the whole of the planet are melted into heaps of molten scrap and rendered to the nothingness, for they simply cannot compare. This fist? This fist contains more might than all of the weapons of all of the tyrants in all of our region; more might than the cancerous tumor that putrefied Al-Quds and claims to have Earth’s 4th most powerful army; more might than the 1,000-base empire that claims the world needs its “exceptionalism” despite the fact that the only “exceptional” thing it has brought the world is exceptional amounts of suffering and ruin. This fist and this smile are everything. And Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah, is, indeed, everything. For he is the perfect embodiment of Imam Hussein’s (A.S.) essence.

Just as Imam Hussein (A.S.) and his Party were surrounded from all sides by the shaytanic army of Yazid (L.A.) in Karbala on Ashoura, today the Syrian Shi’a in the Idleb villages of Al-Foua’a and Kefraya are besieged from every direction by the Takfiri terrorist scourge. But in defiance of all the grisly trauma that they have been enduring at the hands of Jabhat al-Nusra, Ahrar al-Sham and other “moderate” barbarians since March 2015, these brave humans pictured here, who represent the flesh-and-blood reenactment of the Karbala 72’s incomparable sacrifices, are continuing to hold Ashoura processions as we speak. Masha’ALLAH! Like the partisans of Imam Hussein (A.S.) were deprived of water by the enemies of Islam, the people of Al-Foua’a and Kefraya have been disconnected from all the most basic necessities by the US-‘Israeli’ Empire’s Wahhabi proxies, but still they haven’t let the Ashoura commemorations be halted! Like Abou Fadhl al-Abbas (A.S.) and Ali Akbar (A.S.) heroically fell in hails of arrows, the people of Al-Foua’a and Kefraya face near-daily shellings and have buried hundreds of martyrs, but still they haven’t let the Ashoura commemorations be stopped!

Labaykah Ya Hussein (A.S.)! And rest in eternal serenity to the Shi’a martyred in the Iraqi capital earlier on this morning as they participated in Ashoura processions. Truly, I would have loved to strictly write that today, the beginning of Muharram, that month of red rain, martyrdom and the rise of saviors, marks that time 1,336 years ago when Imam Hussein (A.S.), the Master of Martyrs, the Blood Of The Lion, the Savior Of Islam and the Original Revolutionary, marched with his holy family and righteous companions, a small party of only 72, into the desert sands of Karbala and achieved martyrdom in the face of an army of tens of thousands led by the sadistic tyrant Yazid (L.A.) which sought to wipe out Islam as we know it; when the Imam and his partisans changed the meanings of heroism, dignity and resistance for all-time.

Mighty Iran’s beautiful, revolutionary people stand with occupied Kashmir and so does your friendly neighborhood Iraqi Iconoclast. The ongoing massacre in the Vale, merely the latest round of slaughter in a long string of Indian regime crimes against Kashmiris going back to 1947, is not about Burhan Wani, Hizb al-Moujahideen, Pakistan or some nebulous “Islamist militancy” which represents no more of a threat to the security of Hindustan than a group of gnats represent to an elephant. All these things are mere propaganda instruments for the Modi regime to use when applicable as a means of justifying mass murder of mostly youths between 16-22 whose sole weapon of choice is a stone. This is about Indian state terrorism, nearly seven decades of criminal occupation and an increasingly belligerent regime in the form of Modi’s BJP that is looking for any pretext it can find to build Hindu settlements on Kashmiri Muslim land. Currently the martyr count since July 9th stands at over 45 with hundreds more wounded. Among the casualties are Sunnis, Shi’a and Sufis. The Hindu supremacist oppressors do not discriminate at all, they shoot, maim and torture regardless of what one’s school of thought happens to be.

ISIS’s Ramadan Massacre of Muslim civilians (particularly those of the Shi’a school of thought) continues with more slaughtered in Iraq today. Double car bombs ripped through the town of Taji and the predominantly Shi’a eastern Baghdad neighborhood of Jadida. Casualty count is at least 31 martyrs and over 70 others wounded. Even the most wondrous of wit, the worthiest of wordsmiths, the most anomalous of authors and the most methodical of maestros sometimes hit a block in their ability to express and describe, and I feel like I have just entered that sphere; I have run out of creative, poetic, eloquent ways to say how much I hate Daesh and its American-‘Israeli’-Saudi backers with all of my heart and my soul and every fiber of my being. So I’m just going to say it the way it needs to be said… From my guts: I HATE THESE GOD-FORSAKEN TAKFIRI MOTHERFUCKERS AND I PRAY THEY WILL BE EXTERMINATED OFF THE FACE OF THE PLANET. Continue reading Baghdad Carnage Today: Daesh’s Ramadan Massacre Of Iraqi Muslims Continues→

DEATH TO DAESH. Not even on Ramadan does the Takfiri trash leave the Iraqi people alone. At least 5 innocents were murdered and more than 11 others were wounded earlier on this afternoon when a cowardly ISIS terrorist snuck into the holy city of Karbala and detonated a car bomb. The attack occurred a mere five kilometers from the shrines of Imam Hussein (A.S.) and Abou Fadhl al-Abbas (A.S.), not to mention right next to the house of Karbala Governor Aqeel al-Tourayhi. It is pathetically obvious that this hideous assault on civilians as they fast for Islam’s Holiest Month is the extent of MossadDaesh’s “response” to the ongoing liberation of Fallujah. The Takfiris are too inept, too weak and simply too gutless to stand and face our mighty moujahideen, the Iraqi Popular Mobilization, like men on the battlefield so they resort to what their ‘Israeli’, American ZOG and Saudi masters trained them to do: Inflict terrorism and spread fitnah. Let this be a reminder to all “geopolitical analysts” commenting on affairs in my homeland that the Wahhabi-Zionist fanatics of the “Islamic” State are about as “Islamic” as ‘Israeli’ Sephardi Chief Rabbi Yitzhak Yosef, who says it’s a “mitzvah” to slaughter Palestinians. He most certainly thinks it’s a “mitzvah” for the Zionists’ Takfiri proxies to slaughter Iraqis too. Continue reading Karbala Bombing: Not Even On Ramadan Does ISIS Let The Iraqi People Rest→

Masha’ALLAH, Dahiyeh this morning was gorgeous! Long live Hizbullah! Long live Hajj Moustafa “Sayyed Zulfiqar” Badreddine! When a people transcend the fear of death, they also transcend the enemy’s ability to inflict harm upon them. Because what can an adversary, especially one as vicious, underhanded and lily-livered as the Zionist entity, actually do in terms of hurt to a people who adore the Next Life more than this one; who love martyrdom more than they love air? Like the millions of Husseini pilgrims from Iraq and abroad who made the journey to Kazimiyeh and Karbala, in a total rebuke of MossadDaesh, because nothing was going to keep them from Imam Moussa al-Kazim (A.S.), Imam Hussein (A.S.), Imam Zayn al-Abideen (A.S.) and Abou Fadhl al-Abbas (A.S.), today, the righteous, Godwary moujahideen of the Lebanese Islamic Resistance, their friends and their loved ones marched through the streets of the southern Beirut suburbs with the coffin of martryed Hizbullah Commander Hajj Moustafa Badreddine, putting the ‘Israeli’ enemy on notice that such a crime wouldn’t even put a single dent in Hizbullah’s armor. ‘Israel’ couldn’t defeat the Mouqawamah grill-to-grill during 22 years of criminal, barbaric occupation, nor could its “most moral army” defeat the Mouqawamah eye-to-eye during the 2006 July War, but it thinks it can cripple this Mighty Mouqawamah with covert assassinations and Takfiri destabilization? No. No, not at all. Stop with the Halakhic-Talmudic delusions. Hizbullah is always going to beat down and beat back the Zionist usurpers until they are driven from Palestine for good, the ultimate goal which Hajj Moustafa fought to achieve until his martyrdom. And on that note, please smile ya Sayyed Zulfiqar. Look down upon your beautiful community and their even more beautiful Culture of Resistance and smile, because with souls as defiant as this, the tremendousness of the vengeance for your assassination will only be eclipsed by the tremendousness of your wonderful life. Smile.
